Lees-McRae promotes Assoc. AD Ed Winters to AD as Bobcats AD Marty Favret steps down for personal reasons. SVP for Enrollment Management Kevin Phillips: “Ed brings a great deal of experience that we need to continue our pursuit of excellence at the NCAA Division II level. As a former coach and current administrator, he is well respected among our coaches and staff and understands the needs of today's student-athletes and Lees-McRae College as an institution. He is the right person to follow Marty Favret, who guided us through a challenging time in the aftermath of the incredible damage caused by Hurricane Helene last fall.” (link)
